2014 lexus is250 Reviews and News

Lexus’ compact sport sedan, the 2015 Lexus IS, is tweaked this year after a complete redesign for 2014. The slightly updated Lexus IS 350 and IS 250 models gain some new technology features in addition to a slightly updated interior, but otherwise remain the same mechanically.

Every car in the compact luxury sedan segment wants to catch the BMW 3 Series, and the new Lexus IS is no different. In this new episode of the Downshift, Lexus chief engineer Junichi Furuyama discusses how the team went about prepping the new IS for compact luxury sedan battle.

You’d be forgiven for mistaking Lexus’ press conference for a haute couture fashion show. Had you stepped into Cobo Hall’s Riverside Ballroom at 9:30 this morning, you’d have been privy to throbbing, ear-wrenching music; blinding stroboscopic lights; and a video that interposed oddly-dressed individuals (one wore chandelier eyelashes, while another was a spot-on replica of Transformer-era Lou Reed) with inspirational mantras typed in super-large font. Throngs of paparazzi lining the stage only helped complete the effect.
